Plainclothes police picked up Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD) office secretary Abdus Sattar Patwari from the city’s Dhanmondi area on Tuesday.

Deputy Commissioner (media) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Masudur Rahman said a team of Detective Branch of police held Sattar from Dhanmondi Prince Plaza Market around 2:40pm.

He, however, declined to explain the reason behind taking him into custody.

Contacted, JCD general secretary Akramul Hasan said though there was no case against Sattar, the government detained him only because of its political vengeance.

He demanded the government release him immediately.
